Your veins have begged you to run since the first beat of your heart.
It’s a call you can’t ignore forever,
but after three hours of driving toward Anywhere North Of This God-Forsaken Place,
trees turn into looming soldiers lining the highways with their guns pointed at heaven,
finger...

Done
Clocks are ticking
Time is running out
A rush of blood to the head occurs as I scramble to find reason in this madness
I’m lost without you
But you don’t seem to care
You helped me pick up my broken heart
Then you leave me to the wolves to have it shattered once again
Only...

During the brief period of time between summer and winter,
when the sun began to fade,
and the first flurries of snow fell from the clouds,
I stepped through the threshold of some mysterious place.
I can’t tell you exactly what day it was,
or who led me there,
but I can...

I want you to know something.
You were made to fly,
You were born with wings.
They’re quite the beauty, actually,
With colors so brilliant, so alive, so eager to shine.
They long to fan out, to grow,
To lift you up, and to renew your strength once again.
They want to set you free-
But you never l...

Life gets bolder.
The weather gets colder.
We grow older.
As seniors in high school, the weight of the world seems to rest on our shoulders.
Words grow sharper.
Nights get darker.
The world becomes starker.
As seniors in high school, our worldviews become clearer.

The following are three poems that I have written. They all follow a central theme of love; however, I always try to keep my creative writing ambiguous in order to allow more people to relate to it. My personal favorite of these three is definitely Sunday Morning, but I hope you enjoy all of them!
The Road I Ta...

Everything was perfect,
But only for a moment.
It couldn’t last
Because no beautiful thing can.
It was a delicate thing,
Fragile, as if made of glass,
And it cracked
Right under his fingertips.
All at once,
Everything shattered.
In the glass cascading...

Even if God gave me the stars
and told me to paint a masterpiece
with my only medium being cosmic,
and ordered me to paint the most
beautiful thing he’s seen,
An apology would be conjured
in truthful excuse
I would say he could surely not expect
me to create the greatest thing
when already,...

She was like the moon.
The only constant thing about her
Was that she was constantly changing.
Sometimes she was full,
Those were the best of times,
But other times,
She disappeared inside herself.
Though she was beautiful and radiant,
In every sense of the words,
She...

There are so many things
I wish I could relate her love to.
I’d like to tell you how her love
Was deep
And warm
And full of soft kisses,
But that would be too cliché
She exuded sweetness,
Like a holographic heart
But she held tight to me
With razor...

Sekhmet is an animal on the battlefield.
She guns down every enemy she sees,
smiling when they look at her with fear.
And when she returns
she makes sure everyone has their wounds checked.
As she heals in ways that the doctors can’t.
Bastet works in an animal hospital.
The cats all flock to...
